my life as a soundtrack : the mental breakdown

For a lot of songs, I tend to subconsciously pair it with a particular event, object or feeling. On more than one occasion I have listened to "The Wolves (Act I & II)" by Bon Iver & "Sweet Love for Planet Earth" by Fuck Buttons & thought, "if there was a movie about my life, I would most certainly have my mental breakdown (which is inevitably going to happen) with this playing in the background." A rain storm would definitely be involved as well.

Is that weird? These songs really are quite perfect though -- great build-up. Very emotional. Although, if cut properly, I think "Sweet Love for Planet Earth" could make for a great sex scene as well. Just saying...
